that sucks large ones.... big time.. for some reason i feel its almost worse to have a project stolen than a car... its ike they not only take the vehiecle, but all the dreams and plans too... if you have some miles on the car you can atleast look back at the satisfaction of finishing it, anyway.. like everyone else ill keep my eyes and ears open...
to bad its not just on overhaulin....

Not this again. Another theft. There has to be much harsher laws to prevent this kind of thing. I guess this serves as a warning in this economy that these things will keep happening as more and more people get desperate. The police don't seem to care about stolen cars anymore. And this is why I have guns and don't ever intend to aim for the legs. Sorry to hear about this Tyler.

So the key code pad camera that my storage space has to let people in and out got a good shot of the guy as he was walking out. Hope someone recognizes him.



Also Bakersfield Police Department called this morning with a guy trying to sell some old scrap metal that looks like car parts. They detained him and kept the scrap as evidence. Might be a good lead.....

Oh man,
I wish I had pictures or video of the guy you broke into my house last week.
I would be knock the guy out if I saw him. Tie him up bring him to an empty warehouse and let the torture begin untill he told me where the car was.
Then I would take his car and truck take it to a scrap yard and have it shredded or crushed.

Im not bitter am I

Good deal, Tyler.

This sh*t has got to stop!

Do I see the HRE wheel turned backwards?

What was the guys name? Do you know him? How did he know about your car/stuff?
